Product Description

This product is aligned to Next Generation Science Standard 4-PS3-4 Energy:
Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a devicethat converts energy from one form to another.

The product engages students in a simulation type activity for which they are asked to design, test, and revise a solar oven for the LightHeat, Inc. company's new prototype. They will be competing with other designers (teams of students) to try to design a solar oven that can reach the highest temperature. Forms are included for students to document all of their work, which they will have to submit to LightHeat, Inc. A fun way to get students working to design, engineer, test, revise, document, and report their work!
